At eleven o'clock, the sound of cars stopping came from the road outside, and then the door of the house was knocked on. The senior agent stood at the door and asked softly, "Who's there?" The voice outside was unfamiliar, very strange, but what the other party said was what he needed. "Director Dale asked me to come over. Are you...?" "Thank God, you're finally here!" The senior agent finally breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the two security locks and then pulled the door open. The…-

"Not a single copper coin will be missing from your pocket." Xiao Ming glared at Cui Shang'an. If it were before, he would not have dared to boast about expanding the army to six hundred thousand men. After all, a modern army was not like a feudal cold-weapons army that would be satisfied with a mouthful of food. The training of soldiers, the procurement of equipment, daily food, and soldiers' wages were all a huge expense. In addition, the Empire's army had a large generational gap in weaponry…-

In order to ensure this large-scale counterattack possessed "impact," the staff officers of the Britannian Expeditionary Force headquarters deliberately placed those units that had just arrived in Gaul and hadn't yet squatted in trenches on the front line. Only these units that hadn't yet experienced the bloodiness of the trenches could still maintain their impact after charging out of the trenches, instead of being timid and overly cautious like those veterans. For Second Lieutenant Archibald of the…-

On the other side, the Britannian Expeditionary Force opposite No Man's Land actually had new movements on the afternoon of Christmas Day. Although Sir John French was a stubborn old-school soldier, he was not stupid. The overly "friendly" atmosphere on the front line made him smell danger—the "anti-war" sentiment from the frontline soldiers was obviously not a good thing. And upon learning that such "ceasefire activities" mostly occurred among the North American Legion and some Scottish…-

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The explosions continued to rage. Relying on their trenches and the element of surprise, Hu Hao's forces had completely blinded the Kabuguo 32nd Corps in a single strike. The Allied forces never expected to be ambushed here. Consequently, the soldiers and officers had absolutely zero psychological preparation. Crucially, the ferocious initial barrage instantly neutralized a massive number of Allied troops and heavy equipment. By the time they reacted, they couldn't even muster…-

Fritsch sat in his vehicle, following his troops as they rushed to reinforce Santong County. He hoped they would arrive quickly so they could capture Late City in one fell swoop. Late City was incredibly important to the entire Allied army. Right now, they were like hungry wolves eyeing a fat sheep, eager to pounce on the prize. The staff officers behind him had warned that rushing in blindly could be dangerous, especially since they didn't know the full situation ahead; charging in recklessly might…-

The phone line was suddenly cut. This was not a good thing. Under the cover of the night, nothing could be seen outside the window. There was nothing unusual under the dim streetlights, but the calmer it was, the more uneasy he felt. He quickly opened the drawer. Inside was a semi-automatic pistol. He checked the magazine, pulled the slide back, and then closed the safety. He also put two spare magazines into his pocket. He came out of the study. His wife was in the living room, reading a…-

The Deputy Director of the Bureau of Hazardous Materials had never had much of a presence. In fact, he had tried before. Before Director Dale arrived to take up his post, he had arrived in Golden Port City a step ahead and had invited some of the core agents to meet for dinner to build relationships. To be able to become a deputy director in such a department under the direct management of Congress meant that he also had connections and a network behind him. Unfortunately, Dale's connections…-

The tranquility that began on the night of December 24th, like something only found in fairy tales, was completely shattered in the afternoon of Christmas Day. As the last Saxon soldier reluctantly jumped back into his own trench, a few minutes later, the Britannian artillery positions in the distance took the lead in letting out brief roars. Immediately following, the Krupp cannons on the Saxon side also roared unwillingly to show weakness. The dirt was overturned again, and the craters that had…-

"Does Your Majesty mean that some of the industries that use steam engines can be transferred overseas?" A flash of inspiration appeared in Yang Chengye's mind, and he suddenly thought of something. Xiao Ming nodded with a smile. He said, "In fact, some merchants in the Empire have already brought steam engine technology to the colonies. These are the mines in the colonies. The efficiency of mining is very low without a steam engine." "That is true. In comparison, using electricity requires…-
